Effect of Exhaustive Training or Forced Immobilization on Physiological Condition and Main Metabolic and Stress Markers of Wistar Male Rats

摘要

For correct and reliable experimental in vivo assessment of antistress effect of various bioactive substances, appropriate biomodels reproducing stress and organism response to stress in laboratory animals should be chosen. We chose treadmill test for simulating exhaustive physical load and forced immobilization accompanied by disorders of physiological and psychological condition. Verification of the models used indicates their wide applicability for testing certain biological manifestations under reproduced stress exposure.
